McVain for one voted against it. Really anymore to do anything in the Senate to avoid these filibusters, we need to have a "super majority" of Repubs.

(Reuters) - A divided U.S. Senate on Wednesday rejected a bid to amend the Constitution to ban same-sex marriage, likely killing the proposal backed by President Bush for at least this election year.

Time to start cleaning house this election cycle. And if at all possible start a recall vote for the ones who voted against.

Not a chance. The RNC will ensure these RINO's get reelected every time.

it won't register as an issue with most people until their kids come home from school and tell them that today's lesson showed how Eddie could marry Bobby, or Susie, and it was all the same. By then, it will be too late to do anything about it of course, but the sheeple don't understand that. once these marriages are performed, and the SCOTUS tosses the federal defense of marriage act - there will be no way to undo it.

"Did John F'in Kerry vote?"

No. He spoke in the Senate today, but didn't stick around for the vote. More important things to do, apparently...

For the moment you might be right. The Republican party was infested with non-conservatives just like the Church Priesthood has been infested by the Perverted crowd. However I believe this one act of Anti-Family will be enough to bring out the silent Majority to kick some RINO and DIM arse.
